Neil Gaiman // "Grown-ups don't look like grown-ups on the inside... Outside, they're big and thoughtless and they always know what they're doing. Inside, they look just like they always have... Truth is, there aren't any grown-ups. Not one, in the whole wide world."

Buckminster Fuller // "I live on Earth at present, and I don’t know what I am. I know that I am not a category. I am not a thing — a noun. I seem to be a verb, an evolutionary process – an integral function of the universe."

Photo of Nikola Tesla

Nikola Tesla // "Though free to think and act, we are held together...These ties cannot be seen, but we can feel them. I cut myself in the finger, and it pains me: this finger is a part of me. I see a friend hurt, and it hurts me, too: my friend and I are one... I see stricken down an enemy, a lump of matter which, of all the lumps of matter in the universe, I care least for, and it still grieves me. Does this not prove that each of us is only part of a whole?"

Miranda July // "All I ever really want to know is how other people are making it through life—where do they put their body, hour by hour, and how do they cope inside of it."
